12 organic baby items worth splurging on

1 Organic crib mattress

Why you should splurge

Your baby spends up to 70 percent of his time on his mattress.
Since traditional mattresses contain polyurethane foam, vinyl PVS,
phthalates, fire retardants and other chemicals that may seep
through your baby's skin, this is one of your most important
organic purchases, says Suzanne Price, owner and founder of Sprout
San Francisco, a chain of stores in Chicago and throughout the
country focusing solely on providing healthy baby products.
